Re: Putting a Player on a Hand
This question, while admirable in its ambition, fails to take into account common sense.
These factors are all inter-related. There is no useful answer to the question of what is most important.
For example, a raise in late position indicates a wider range than a raise UTG, typically. Yet, you need to balance that with previous action - if someone has raised UTG, another person has re-raised, and the button has re-re-raised, obviously that has to be a very, very tight range if there are deep stacks. If the stacks are shorter, the re-re-raising range opens up again.
Sometimes the issues are moot because of the board. eg, an extreme example: AKQJ4 board, you have 23, and your opponent pushes on the river. You beat precisely *nothing*, and thus, reading your opponent's hand is irrelevant.
